Plot

Dumb and Dumberer is basically a teen comedy that looks at the time when the two eponymous guys named Lloyd Christmas and Harry Dunne first met, in high school 1986. The film is laden with numerous innuendos, crude humor and songs from the period's mainstream, but mostly those from recently. Many regarded the film's plot as predictable.

Harry, a guy home-schooled all his life, finally gets his chance to go to regular school. At the same time, another guy named Lloyd (who has been adopted exchanged several times until he was accepted by Ray the janitor, as shown in the deleted scenes), become overeager and gets of school to get to school. Harry bumps to Lloyd on the way in search for a treasure his mom asked him to find and, as if it were destiny, the two instantly became the best of friends.

Meanwhile, corrupt Principal Collins is finding a way to get a large amount of money to take a vacation. Seeing the two guys getting hoisted on a flagpole made him establish a 'special needs' class to swindle $100,000 from the local community. Obviously, Lloyd and Harry were more than thrilled to help, and thus found themselves signing people who are 'different', to the class.

Jessica, a headstrong student, is suspicious of Collins' sudden contribution. She asks Harry for information. Harry, thinking that she is flirting with him, turns to Lloyd for courtship tips. A disgusting disaster involving Jessica's house and a melted chocolate bar scared her dad and directed her attention to Lloyd. Soon the two friends get into a fight over Jessica, without her knowing it.

Inevitably, the two made amends when Lloyd and Harry realised that they were nothing without the other (That, and that Lloyd stole a stuffed polar bear from a fieldtrip they had, plus the Principal's "evil scheme" evidence he stashed in his office, thinking it was Harry's supposed treasure).

It so happens that the Special Needs class was asked to build a float for President's day at that time. Instead of building a float with George Washington as the main attraction, they changed it to look like Principal Collins (as a pirate) with repeated recordings of his damning evidence. Collins was arrested before he got away and Lloyd and Harry were regarded as heroes.

However, like the first film, the duo's advances to Jessica were in vain since it turned out that she had a boyfriend. As the couple rode off, Lloyd and Harry vowed never to fight and risk their friendship over a woman, again. That vow was repeatedly broken.
